Inexpensive chemical compounds which can provide woody, nutty, floral,lilac, green, peach-like, balsamic and fresh air dried linen aromas withminty, floral, cinnamon-like and green topnotes are highly desirable inthe art of perfumery. Many of the natural materials which provide suchfragrances and contribute such desired nuances to perfumery compositionsand perfumed articles are high in cost, unobtainable at times, vary inquality from one batch to another and/or are generally subject to theusual variations of natural products.

There is, accordingly, a continuing effort to find synthetic materialswhich will replace, enhance or augment the fragrance notes provided bynatural essential oils or compositions thereof. Unfortunately, many ofthe synthetic materials either have the desired nuances only to arelatively small degree, or they contribute undesirable or unwanted odorto the compositions.

U.S. Pat. No. 4,357,247 issued on Nov. 2, 1982 discloses aliphatic C₁₁branched chain aldehydes and alcohols, defined according to the genericstructure: ##STR5## wherein one of X₁ or X₂ is hydrogen and the other ofX₁ or X₂ is methyl; and wherein one of Z₁ or Z₂ is hydrogen and theother of Z₁ or Z₂ is hydroxymethyl having the structure: ##STR6## orcarboxaldehyde having the structure: ##STR7## for use in augmenting orenhancing the aroma of perfume compositions, colognes and perfumedarticles. The resulting compounds and compositions of matter providecitrusy, green, melony, woody, peanut oil-like and vetiver-like aromanuances. The compounds of U.S. Pat. No. 4,357,247 are different in kindinsofar as their structure and organoleptic properties are concernedfrom the compounds of the instant application.

Furthermore, C₁₁ aliphatic alcohols and aldehydes are well known in theart of perfumery, e.g., n-undecanal and n-undecanol. Oxo reactionproducts on hydrocarbon compounds are also well known in the perfumeryindustry aside from U.S. Pat. No. 4,357,247. Thus, U.S. Pat. No.4,146,505 discloses the formation ofhydroxymethyl-formyl-tricyclo[5,2,1,0²,6 ]decane having the structure:##STR8## wherein R₁ and R₂ are the hydroxymethyl group, CH₂ OH or theformyl group CHO and R₁ represents CH₂ OH when R₂ is CHO and vice versa.This polycyclic carboxaldehyde alcohol is indicated to be useful as amusk aroma imparting or augmenting material. The material is indicatedto be produced by reaction of carbon monoxide and hydrogen withdicyclopentadiene. Other oxo reaction products on unsaturatedhydrocarbons are known in the perfumery industry, for example,"Vandor-B", which is the oxo reaction product of carbon monoxide andhydrogen on diiosbutylene. This material has been produced byInternational Flavors & Fragrances Inc., the assignee of the instantpatent application, for several years.

Nothing in the prior art however, discloses the compounds definedaccording to the structure: ##STR9## produced by oxo reaction oncompounds defined according to the structure: ##STR10## wherein thelines

As olfactory agents, the tertiary hydroxyl carboxaldehydes taken aloneor in admixture, of our invention, can be formulated into, or used ascomponents of a "perfume composition" or can be used as components of a"perfumed article", or the perfume composition may be added to perfumedarticles.

The term "perfume composition" is used herein to mean a mixture oforganic compounds including, for example, mono alcohols, aldehydes(other than the tertiary hydroxyl carboxaldehydes of our invention),ketones, nitriles, ethers, lactones, natural essential oils, syntheticessential oils and hydrocarbons which are admixed so that the combinedodors of the individual components produce a pleasant or desiredfragrance. Such perfume compositions usually contain (a) the main noteor the "bouquet" or foundation stone of the compositions; (b) modifierswhich round off and accompany the main note; (c) fixatives which includeodorous substances which lend a particular note to the perfumethroughout all stages of evaporation, and substances which retardevaporation; and (d) topnotes which are usually low boiling,fresh-smelling materials.

In perfume compositions, the individual component will contribute itsparticular olfactory characteristics, but the overall effect of theperfume composition will be the sum of the effects of each of theingredients and in certain instances, a synergistic effect as a resultof the addition of certain ingredients. Thus, the individual compoundsof this invention, or mixtures thereof, can be used to alter the aromacharacteristics of a perfume composition, for example, by highlightingor moderating the olfactory reaction contributed by another ingredientin the composition.

The amount of the tertiary hydroxyl carboxaldehydes of our inventionwhich will be effective in perfume compositions depends on many factors,including the other ingredients, their amounts and the effects which aredesired. It has been found that perfume compositions containing aslittle as 0.05% of the tertiary hydroxyl carboxaldehydes of thisinvention, or even less, can be used to impart an interesting, woody,nutty, floral, lilac, green, peach-like, balsamic and fresh air driedlinen aromas with minty, floral, cinnamon-like and green topnotes tosoaps, liquid or solid anionic, cationic, nonionic or zwitterionicdetergents, cosmetics, cosmetic powders, liquid and solid fabricsofteners, drier-added fabric softener articles, (e.g., BOUNCE® aregistered trademark of the Procter & Gamble Company of Cincinnati,Ohio), optical brightener compositions and other products. The amountemployed can range up to 70% or even higher, and will depend onconsiderations of cost, nature of the end product, and the effectdesired on the finished product and particular fragrance sought. Thus,for example, when fragrancing liquid bleach compositions containingalkalihypochlorite such as, for example, sodium hypochlorite, forexample CLOROX®, (registered trademark of Clorox, Inc.), the amountemployed can be as high as 100% of the fragrance involved in the liquidbleach. Indeed, a distinctive aspect of our invention is the use of oneor more of the tertiary hydroxyl carboxaldehydes of our invention in astable liquid bleach composition.

The tertiary hydroxyl carboxaldehydes of this invention, taken alone orin admixture, can be used alone, or in a perfume composition as anolfactory component in detergents, soaps, space odorants and deodorants;perfumes; colognes, toilet waters; bath salts; hair preparations, suchas lacquers, brilliantines, pomades and shampoos; cosmetic preparations,such as creams, deodorants, hand lotions, sunscreens; powders, such astalcs, dusting powders, face powders and the like; liquid bleaches, suchas sodium hypochlorite-containing bleaches; floor waxes; automobilearomas and automobile polish compositions; and perfumed polymers andperfumed polymer articles of manufacture such as perfumed garbage bags.

When used as an olfactory component of a perfumed article, as little as0.01% of one or more of the tertiary hydroxyl carboxaldehydes of ourinvention will suffice to impart an interesting, woody, nutty, floral,lilac, green, peach-like, balsamic and fresh air dried linen aromas withminty, floral, cinnamon-like and green topnotes. Generally, no more than0.5% is required to impart such aromas, however, in view of the ratherlow cost of the tertiary hydroxyl carboxaldehydes of our invention, upto 100% of the perfume composition can be one or more of the tertiaryhydroxyl carboxaldehydes of our invention.

Accordingly, the range of use in perfumed articles of the tertiaryhydroxyl carboxaldehydes of our invention is from about 0.01% up toabout 0.5%.

In addition, the perfume composition of our invention can contain avehicle or carrier for the tertiary hydroxyl carboxaldehydes takenalone, or taken together with other ingredients. The vehicle can be aliquid such as a non-toxic alcohol such as ethanol, a glycol such aspropylene glycol, or the like. The carrier can be an absorbent solid,such as a gum or components (e.g., gum arabic, xanthan gum or guar gumor combinationa thereof) or components for encapsulating the compositionsuch as gelatin which can be used to form a capsule wall surrounding theperfume oil, as by means of coacervation, or a polymer such as theureformaldehyde polymer which can be used to surround a perfume liquidcenter.

It will thus be apparent that the tertiary hydroxyl carboxaldehydes ofour invention can be utilized to alter, modify or enhance sensoryproperties, particularly organoleptic properties such as fragrances of awide variety of consumable materials.
